Image Target Recognition via Mixed Feature-Based Joint Sparse Representation

الملخص EN

An image target recognition approach based on mixed features and adaptive weighted joint sparse representation is proposed in this paper.

This method is robust to the illumination variation, deformation, and rotation of the target image.

It is a data-lightweight classification framework, which can recognize targets well with few training samples.

First, Gabor wavelet transform and convolutional neural network (CNN) are used to extract the Gabor wavelet features and deep features of training samples and test samples, respectively.

Then, the contribution weights of the Gabor wavelet feature vector and the deep feature vector are calculated.

After adaptive weighted reconstruction, we can form the mixed features and obtain the training sample feature set and test sample feature set.

Aiming at the high-dimensional problem of mixed features, we use principal component analysis (PCA) to reduce the dimensions.

Lastly, the public features and private features of images are extracted from the training sample feature set so as to construct the joint feature dictionary.

Based on joint feature dictionary, the sparse representation based classifier (SRC) is used to recognize the targets.

The experiments on different datasets show that this approach is superior to some other advanced methods.
